Crispy enough to crunch, soft enough to enjoy. A good bake.
Summary
The article discusses how a specialized tool, SuperVM, outperforms general-purpose AI models like Copilot GPT4o and Claude Sonnet 4 in optimizing compiled code. Using a simple fractal generator as a test case, SuperVM achieved 2 to 3 times faster performance. The author highlights the potential of specialized tools in the AGI landscape, despite their early-stage development.
